BACKGROUND

The present invention relates to a machine learning system, a domain conversion device, and a machine learning method.

JP-A-2018-63504 (Patent Literature 1) discloses a generative model learning method and a technique of preventing generation of data that is undesirable to a user. The generative model learning method includes a first learning step of learning a first generative model by unsupervised learning based on learning data prepared beforehand, a generation step of generating data by the first generative model, and a second learning step of learning a second generative model by supervised learning based on the learning data and the generated data determined as undesirable by a user.

Ashish Shrivastava, Tomas Pfister, Oncel Tuzel, Josh Susskind, Wenda Wang, Russ Webb, Apple Inc, “Learning from Simulated and Unsupervised Images through Adpoarial Training”, Searched on Internet on Nov. 29, 2018 (Non-patent Literature 1) discloses a technique in which a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) is used to reduce a gap between a synthetic image and an actual image by learning a model to improve the reality of an output of a simulator using actual data while preserving annotation information from the simulator.

Model learning in a machine learning system that performs image recognition requires a huge number of learning data. An example of a method for efficiently performing the model learning includes a model learning method in which learning data is used in a simulation environment obtained by simulating a field environment where a machine learning system is applied.

However, a state difference (a gap) between the simulation environment and the field environment may be a problem when applying the model learning method. A method to solve the above-mentioned difference includes a conversion (domain conversion) method for converting an image in the field environment to an image obtained by simulating an image in the simulation environment by a generative model (generator) of the Generative Adversarial Network (GAN). However, there is a room for improvement of conversion accuracy of the generative model in such a case.

An object of Patent Literature 1 is to prevent the generation of data that is undesirable to a user by the generative model, and the object does not include reducing a burden on the user such as preparation of learning data of the generative model.

To achieve the above object, one aspect of the invention provides an information processing system (the machine learning system) that performs learning of a pseudo image generative model that is a machine learning model that converts a first domain image into a pseudo second domain image. The first domain image is an image in a first domain and is obtained by capturing an image for an object to be recognized and the pseudo second domain image is an image obtained by simulating a second domain image that is an image in a second domain. The information processing system includes a first determination model that determines whether an input image is the second domain image; a second determination model that determines whether an extracted image that is an image extracted from the input image based on area information specifying an area where an object is presented in the input image is an image extracted from the second domain image based on area information specifying an area where an object is presented in the second domain image; an image extracting unit that generates the extracted image and input the extracted image into the second determination model; a selection input unit that selects and inputs either the pseudo second domain image or the second domain image into the first determination model, and selects and inputs either a first combination of the pseudo second domain image and first area information that is the area information for the pseudo second domain image or a second combination of the second domain image and second area information that is the area information for the second domain image into the image extracting unit; and a learning processing unit that performs learning of the first determination model based on a first determination result that includes a result of a determination made by the first determination model and correct answer information for the determination, performs learning of the second determination model based on a second determination result that includes a result of a determination made by the second determination model and correct answer information for the determination, and performs learning of the pseudo image generative model based on the first determination result and the second determination result.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

Hereinafter, embodiments will be described with reference to the drawings. In the following description, the same or similar components may be denoted by the same number, and a repetitive description thereof may be omitted.

Generally, learning of machine learning model (hereinafter, referred to as a “model”) in a machine learning system that performs image recognition requires a huge number of learning data, and it takes a user a lot of efforts and time to prepare the learning data. For example, the user needs to prepare, as the learning data, a huge number of captured images corresponding to various states of an object in a field to which the machine learning system is applied, and needs to label the captured images (set correct answer information) in learning of a model (hereinafter, referred to as a “control model”) that controls a robot arm while recognizing an object by image recognition.

An example of a method for efficiently performing model learning includes a method using a simulation environment obtained by simulating a field environment. However, in the method, even if an image in the field environment (hereinafter, referred to as a “field image”) is directly input to a model, the model may not function correctly due to a state difference (domain difference) between the simulation environment and the field environment.

A method in which a model that is made to learn in the simulation environment also functions correctly in the field environment is considered to be a method in which data acquired in the field environment is converted into data simulating data in the simulation environment by a domain conversion device using a machine learning model (hereinafter, referred to as a “pseudo image generative model”).

Specifically, for example, in a case of the above-described control model, the field image (hereinafter, referred to as a “first domain image”) is converted into an image (hereinafter, referred to as a “pseudo second domain image”) that simulates an image in the simulation environment (hereinafter, referred to as a “second domain image”) by the domain conversion device that is configured with the machine learning model (hereinafter, referred to as a “pseudo image generative model”), and the pseudo second domain image is input into the control model.

However, a large number of learning data (a set of the first domain image and a label) used for the learning of the pseudo image generative model may need to be prepared in this method.

There is a method of using a generative model (generator) of the Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) as the pseudo image generative model.

FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a system (hereinafter, referred to as a “domain conversion system 5”) that implements the above method. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the domain conversion system 5 converts a first domain image 11 into a pseudo second domain image 11 g by a pseudo image generative model G generated as the generative model of the GAN.

FIG. 2 is a diagram illustrating learning of the pseudo image generative model G. Similar to learning of a generative model of a general GAN, at a time of the learning of the pseudo image generative model G which is the generative model of the GAN, a determination model D (Discriminator) (hereinafter, referred to as a “first determination model D1”) is used in addition to the pseudo image generative model G.

As illustrated in FIG. 2, one first domain image 11 selected from a first domain image group ill is input into the pseudo image generative model G. Either one pseudo second domain image 11 g generated by the pseudo image generative model G or one (true) second domain image 21 selected from a second domain image group 211 is randomly selected and input into the first determination model D1.

The first determination model D1 determines whether an input image is the second domain image 21 (the true second domain image), and outputs a determination result (hereinafter, referred to as a “first determination result A1”). The first determination result A1 is a determination result of the first determination model D1, and includes information indicating whether the input image is similar to the second domain image (or information indicating a similarity degree) and information of a label (correct answer information indicating whether the input image is the pseudo second domain image or the second domain image 21).

The first determination result A1 is used in the learning of the pseudo image generative model G and learning of the first determination model D1. The pseudo image generative model G learns that the first determination model D1 determines that the input image is the second domain image 21 by mistake based on the first determination result A1. On the other hand, the first determination model D1 learns not to mistake the pseudo second domain image 11 g generated by the pseudo image Generative model G for the second domain image based on the first determination result A1. Thus, accuracy of generating the pseudo second domain image 11 g by the pseudo image generative model G and determination accuracy of the first determination model D1 is improved by learning in which the pseudo image generative model G and the first determination model D1 competes with each other. The learning of the pseudo image generative model G and the first determination model D1 is performed by a learning processing unit (not illustrated), which implements one of functions included in the machine learning system.

According to the method described above, the learning of the pseudo image generative model G can be performed by simply preparing the first domain image group 111 and the second domain image group 211 without labeling the first domain image 11.

In the learning of the pseudo image generative model according to the above-described method, the first domain image 11 randomly selected from the first domain image group 111 and the second domain image 21 randomly selected from the second domain image group 211 are provided as the learning data, respectively. Therefore, the pseudo image generative model G may generate the pseudo second domain image 11 g (for example, an image causes noise when the control model described above recognizes an object) which is not expected at the beginning and in which, for example, an object that is not included in the first domain image is included in the pseudo second domain image 11 g, or the like.

Here, an example of a method for preventing the learning of the pseudo image generative model G from being advanced in an undesirable direction includes a method for performing the learning of the pseudo image generative model G to reduce a difference between images before and after a conversion performed by the pseudo image generative model G.

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating the method. As illustrated in FIG. 3, in the method, a difference derivation unit DF is provided to detect a difference between the first domain image 11 that is input into the pseudo image generative model G and the pseudo second domain image 11 g generated by the pseudo image generative model G. The pseudo image generative model G is made to learn to reduce a difference df detected by the difference derivation unit DF. However, there is a problem in the method that it is not always easy to extract information useful for calculating the difference df from the images before and after the conversion performed by the pseudo image generative model G, or extract the difference df of abstract information from the images.

In view of the above problem, the present embodiment is to solve the problem described above according to the following method.

FIG. 4 is a block diagram illustrating a main configuration of the machine learning system 1 configured to solve the above problem. The machine learning system 1 is, for example, an information processing system that learns a control model which controls a robot arm while recognizing an object to be recognized.

As illustrated in FIG. 4, the machine learning system 1 stores the first domain image group 111, a first area information group 121, the second domain image group 211, and a second area information group 221.

The first area information group 121 includes information (hereinafter, referred to as “first area information 12”) used for specifying an area where an object is presented (that is, outline information of the area where the object is presented) in the first domain image 11. For the first domain image 11 acquired by, for example, an imaging device (for example, a depth camera, a TOF range image camera, and a stereo camera) capable of acquiring information about a distance (depth) to a subject, the first area information 12 can be obtained (generated) by comparing the distance with a threshold set with respect to the distance. For example, the first area information 12 can be acquired (generated) by using a known image processing technique for the first domain image 11.

The pseudo image generative model G shown in FIG. 4 converts one first domain image 11 selected from the first domain image group 111 into the pseudo second domain image 11 g.

A combination of the pseudo second domain image 11 g and the first area information 12 that is selected form the first area information group 121 and is relating to the first domain image 11 which is a conversion source of the pseudo second domain image 11 g (hereinafter, referred to as a “first combination”) is input into a selection input unit I.

A combination of the second domain image 21 selected from the second domain image group 211 and second area information 22 that is selected from the second area information group 221 and is relating to the second domain image 21 (hereinafter, referred to as a “second combination”) is input into the selection input unit I.

The selection input unit I randomly selects either the first combination or the second combination, inputs the pseudo second domain image 11 g or the second domain image 21 in the selected combination into the first determination model D1, and inputs the selected first combination or second combination into an image extracting unit S.

When the first combination is selected, the selection input unit I inputs the pseudo second domain image 11 g in the combination into the first determination model D1, and inputs the pseudo second domain image 11 g and the first area information 12 in the combination into the image extracting unit S. In this case, the image extracting unit S inputs an image (hereinafter, referred to as a “first extracted image 11 c”) obtained by extracting an area (an area where an object is presented) specified by the input first area information 12 from the input pseudo second domain image 11 g, into a second determination model D2.

When the second combination is selected, the selection input unit I inputs the second domain image 21 in the combination into the first determination model D1, and inputs the second domain image 21 and the second area information 22 in the combination into the image extracting unit S. In this case, the image extracting unit S inputs an image (hereinafter, referred to as a “second extracted image 21 c”) obtained by extracting an area (an area where an object is presented) specified by the input second area information 22 from the input second domain image 21, into the second determination model D2.

The first determination model D1 determines whether the input image is the second domain image 21 (a true second domain image), and outputs the first determination result A1. The first determination model D1 learns not to mistake the pseudo second domain image 11 g generated by the pseudo image generative model G for the second domain image based on the first determination result A1. On the other hand, the pseudo image generative model G learns that the first determination model D1 makes a determination by mistake (the pseudo second domain image 11 g is erroneously determined as the second domain image) based on the first determination result A1. Learning of the pseudo image generative model G and the first and second determination models D1 and D2 is performed by the learning processing unit (not illustrated) which implements one of the functions included in the machine learning system.

The second determination model D2 determines whether the input image is the first extracted image 11 c or the second extracted image 21 c, and outputs a second determination result A2. The second determination model D2 learns to correctly determine whether the input image is the first extracted image 11 c or the second extracted image 21 c based on the second determination result A2. On the other hand, the pseudo image generative model G learns that the second determination model D2 makes a determination by mistake (the second determination model D2 erroneously determines the first extracted image 11 c as the second extracted image 21 c) based on the second determination result A2.

In this way, an operation that the second determination model D2 learns to correctly determine whether the input image is the first extracted image 11 c or the second extracted image 21 c is equal to an operation that the second determination model D2 learns in a direction of improving accuracy of recognizing an object included in the second extracted image 21 c. Therefore, the accuracy of recognizing the object is improved as learning of the second determination model D2 is advanced. As a result, accuracy of determining whether a noise is included in the first extracted image 11 c is improved. As described above, the second determination result A2 determined by the second determination model D2 with high accuracy is fed back to the learning of the pseudo image generative model G. As a result, the pseudo image generative model G learns in a direction of reducing a possibility of generating the pseudo second domain image 11 g that is a noise at the time of recognizing an object and is not expected at the beginning.

FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an operation of the machine learning system 1 illustrated in FIG. 4, and illustrating operations of the pseudo image generative model G and the second determination model D2 when the learning of the pseudo image generative model G is not advanced.

As illustrated in FIG. 5, the pseudo image generative model G whose learning is not advanced generates the pseudo second domain image 11 g from which an object in the original first domain image 11 is erroneously removed. The second determination model D2 can correctly determine whether the first extracted image 11 c or the second extracted image 21 c is the pseudo second domain image 11 g or the second domain image 21.

FIG. 6 is a diagram illustrating an operation of the machine learning system 1 illustrated in FIG. 4, and illustrating operations of the pseudo image generative model G and the second determination model D2 when the learning of the pseudo image generative model G is advanced.

As illustrated in FIG. 6, the pseudo image generative model G whose learning is advanced generates the pseudo second domain image 11 g while maintaining information of the object in the original first domain image. The second determination model D2 cannot correctly determine whether the first extracted image 11 c or the second extracted image 21 c is the pseudo second domain image 11 g or the second domain image 21.

Although examples illustrated in FIGS. 5 and 6 illustrates a case where the image extracting unit S extracts an “area where an object is presented” from an original image (the pseudo second domain image 11 g or the second domain image 21), the image extracting unit S may extract an “area where the object is not presented” from the original image. If the “area where the object is not presented” is extracted, the pseudo image generative model G can deal with a case where an object that is not included in the original first domain image 11 is erroneously drawn in the “area where the object is not presented” of the original image. Hereinafter, a configuration of the machine learning system 1 in such a case will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating, in a case where the image extracting unit S extracts the “area where the object is not presented” from the original image (the pseudo second domain image 11 g or the second domain image 21), an operation of the machine learning system 1 illustrated in FIG. 4 and illustrating operations of the pseudo image generative model G and the second determination model D2 at a stage in which the learning of the pseudo image generative model G is not advanced.

As illustrated in FIG. 7, the pseudo image generative model G whose learning is not advanced generates a pseudo second domain image 11 g in which an object that is not presented in the original first domain image 11 is erroneously added. The second determination model D2 can correctly determine whether the first extracted image 11 c or the second extracted image 21 c is the pseudo second domain image 11 g or the second domain image 21.

FIG. 8 is a diagram illustrating, in a case where the image extracting unit S extracts the “area where the object is not presented” from the original image (the pseudo second domain image 11 g or the second domain image 21), an operation of the machine learning system 1 illustrated in FIG. 4 and illustrating operations of the pseudo image generative model G and the second determination model D2 at a stage in which the learning of the pseudo image generative model G is advanced.

As illustrated in FIG. 8, the pseudo image generative model G whose learning is advanced generates the pseudo second domain image 11 g while maintaining the information of the object in the original first domain image 11 (without adding the object or the like). The second determination model D2 cannot correctly determine whether the pseudo second domain image 11 g is the second domain image.

Two cases which are a case where the image extracting unit S extracts the “area where the object is presented” from the original image (the pseudo second domain image or the second domain image 21) and a case where the image extracting unit S extracts the “area where the object is not presented” have been described above. Although the image extracting unit S only performs extracting in one of the two cases in the above description, the image extracting unit S may perform extracting in both cases at the same time.

FIG. 9 is a block diagram of the machine learning system 1 with such a configuration. As illustrated in FIG. 9, the machine learning system 1 is formed by adding a third determination model D3 that makes a determination on an extracted image obtained by the image extracting unit S extracting the “area where the object is not presented” to the configuration of the machine learning system 1 illustrated in FIG. 4. With such a configuration of the machine learning system 1, the pseudo image generative model G can generate the pseudo second domain image 11 g with higher accuracy. Learning of the pseudo image generative model G and the first to third determination models D1 to D3 is performed by the learning processing unit (not illustrated) which implements one of the functions included in the machine learning system 1.

The added third determination model D3 determines whether an image (hereinafter, referred to as a “first extracted image 11 c′”) obtained by extracting an area (an area where an object is not presented) specified by the first area information 12 is an image (hereinafter, referred to as a “second extracted image 21 c′”) obtained by extracting an area (an area where an object is not presented) specified by the second area information 22, and outputs a third determination result A3. The third determination model D3 learns to correctly determine whether the input image is the first extracted image 11 c′ or the second extracted image 21 c′ based on the third determination result A3. On the other hand, the pseudo image generative model G learns that the third determination model D3 makes a determination by mistake based on the third determination result, that is the third determination model D3 erroneously determines that the first extracted image 11 c′ is the second extracted image 21 c′.

Thus, the pseudo image generative model performs learning based on the second determination result A2 and the third determination result A3, in addition to the first determination result A1, so that the pseudo image generative model G can be reliably prevented from generating the pseudo second domain image 11 g that is a noise at the time of recognizing an object and is not expected at the beginning, and the pseudo image generative model G can be made to efficiently learn to generate the pseudo second domain image 11 g with high accuracy.

FIG. 10 illustrates an example of hardware of the information processing device (computer) used for implementing the machine learning system 1 including the configuration illustrated in FIGS. 1, 4, and 9.

The main storage device 120 and the auxiliary storage device 130 store various parameters, the first domain image 11, the pseudo second domain image 11 g, the first area information 12, the second area information 22, the first extracted image 11 c, the second extracted image 21 c, and the first to third determination results A1 to A3 that define the pseudo image generative model G and the first to third determination models D1 to D3.
